My car 'computery thingy' screen has a setting to remind you of
anniversaries etc. But I'm not the one who needs reminding! DH's
French car doesn't have this facility - perhaps the French don't
forget. Next year I think I will put it on the general use calendar!
(40 years then.)

DH has the same reaction to forgetting as yours. Spoils it all if you
have to remind them, doesn't it.

Some years ago we had to sign some papers at our solicitors, and I was
called and asked to bring our marriage certificate. It was on the day
of a forgotten anniversary.

Horror of horrors - the Solicitor would say 'Happy Anniversary' and DH
would flip! So I went out and bought the most over-the-top card I
could find - fat bunnies and lots of gushyness, etc. Handed DH the
Certificate to take with the other papers, and the card. He actually
thought it was funny!!

Instead I will charge that pair of Orthopedic Chocolate Brown Shoes

I have neatened my Quilt Room one more time and am ready to lay out
the squares to see how many I still need. I Love cutting, so by
Saturday I should have made progress. Hurrah! That North Dakota Quilt
Show surely inspired me.

That makes our 23 years look puny by comparison! Congratulations to you
both, and may you enjoy many more together. Oh, and yes, there is a law
that says you have to remind them! It's on the marriage certificate -
in all that small print on the back!

Oh, and I said to Alan that after 63 years you'd have thought he'd
remember, and he said Why? Men!

Congratulations to the both of you - it's my little sis's anniversary also.
Her number isn't as impressive as
yours though.
If it lasted this long, I think you should just give him a
hug and buy yourself whatever you'd like, then give
him a big kiss and say thank you!

Congratulations!!!!
Today would have been my parents' 62nd anniversary (my mother passed in
1996).
Having only been married now for 17 months come next Monday, I don't
think there is a chance of making it to 63 yrs of marriage! 63 years of
age, probably no problem.

where it is 80 degrees at 5:30AM, yep, the desert winds and fire danger
are back with us today.

Congratulations! From one who has been married only 35 years, you have my
complete respect.
Didn't know there were any rules. We usually go out for a really splendid
meal and toast each other with something sparkly. DH has never yet forgotten
to make reservations. If I want anything, I don't need someone else to buy
it for me.

Its not the gift/meal, its the referred guilt! (and the bit of
disappointment because you thought he might have remembered, though we
will never change the 'not rememberers' will we!)

Congratulations Rhoda. The Chocolate Brown Shoes definitely need
filling with chocolate brown chocolate, and pretty fabric - after all,
you will have cut/used so much, it will need replacing. - So luxury
and necessity!

Why not plan something like a celebration holiday next year so he
won't be able to forget. I will let you follow my example in June!!

Happy Belated Anniversary!
Wow, 63 years. Wishing you many more.
Your husband might not have remembered your exact day of your
anniversary but he has to be doing something right to be married 63
years..
Congratulations! Michele
